Breaks during evening matches played over Ramadan

[malfosse]

Doesn't Ramadan only last a few weeks?

A month give or take.

"Everton are in a unique situation compared with other clubs as Doucoure, Idrissa Gueye and Belgium international Amadou Onana form an all-Muslim midfield."

We've had the 'holy trinity'. Now we've got the 'midfield Muslims'.

Alhamdulillah

Some may call it an Unholy trinity ..

@chrismpw

Others would argue it's a holier trinity.

Not a huge issue then I guess (imo)

Bananas pre match and Jaffa cakes half time got me through 40 years of playing football…. Food of champions

And you first aid kit was a wire brush and a bottle of Dettol

You'd hope the clubs 'nutritional experts' would be on top of it but it would be just our luck/incompetence to have our entire midfield knackered for a month because they were only eating cream cakes at 9pm or something

@chrismpw

I wouldn't. I'm sure in their faith system the Muslims don't consider themselves any less holy than Christians or Jews. I'm not comparing faiths or saying any are bad, holy or unholy. I just don't see the point of any of them equally.

What if a new faith system came along where a player believed it was immoral to play sport unless it was between 2am and 3am. In the name of inclusiveness would football, tv and the fans adapt to this? A 60 minute game I'm the middle if the night? Where do we draw the line?

Where do we draw the line?

At made up ridiculous scenarios?

 

[chrismpw]

At made up ridiculous scenarios?

Like the one where an imaginary friend forbids eating during daylight? Or the one where some imaginary friend came back from the dead?

 

[Daveysgingerlovechild]

Loving the argument about subjective irrational beliefs and rationalism in the context of supporting a football team, the least rational and reason based preoccupation going.

Yet we structure huge swathes of social activities around the game.
